Re: ANU 2011 Semester 1 Chatter Thread Semester 2 Chatter thread?

Currently Bruce and Ursula, but watch for changes in the near future. Those colleges may no longer be the cheapest if the proposed increase in fees goes ahead as planned.

Agreed. The system is based on the premise that it will measure the general ability to study of students and that you shouldn't expect Year 10 students to have any clue what their interests and aptitudes might be. I would argue that both of those assumptions are false. Students do have...

Burgmann as said does have many Law, however most of them are Arts/Law. If you go there then you may encounter people with rather "creative" ways of understanding science, so if debating whether or not living on a super-cooled diamond while wearing a warm coat is a valid way to avoid the heat...

Re: ANU 2011 Semester 1 Chatter Thread For the easy marks? Though given the lecturer and the base of the assignments (really, why not just use something written in the language you're teaching instead of a translation with comments mostly missing?) it's probably more annoyance than it's worth...

The BIT at USyd is their advanced, 4-year Comp Sci degree. It takes the same amount of time to complete as the Engineering (Software) degree at USyd though IIRC the UTS Engineering program takes 5 years (they've got a habit of getting people to do concurrent Diplomas of Professional Practice)...

Some people have the misfortune of being born in Queensland, Tasmania or the Northern Territories.

Three sciences can be quite a high workload, and you do have to actually learn the material (it's much harder to guess leChatelier than to waffle on about something you don't really know in an essay). Also, some schools have a standard assessment timing for the sciences. On one day in year 12 I...

Other factors to consider: -Whether you'll spend the time listening or whether you're going to read webcomics/play WoW(some people apparently cannot drag themselves out for a single straight waking hour)/IM randoms/watch porn(someone did this last year) etc -Will you be awake? -Whether or not...

Pics or it didn't happen.

Yes, but don't be a dick. No-one will mind if you eat a chocolate bar or bring in a coffee, but if you bring in a Big Mac or a Durian they may be less accommodating. Alcohol is only ok if you can stay quiet after imbibing.

For the shiny extra letters, and the absence of disappointment on your parents' faces when you finally bring home an average grade of 80%.

4-unit is more about "Do I have time?" than "Can I learn this?". If you are capable of doing 2-unit, then you are capable of doing 4-unit. The difference is the amount of time you put in. Depending on your natural aptitude and your educational background you may need to put more or less work in...

SC2 is my first game since Pokemon. Now Silver in 1v1s and Gold in all teams. Learning about control groups and MBS has really helped. As has starting to build more production facilities. For about the first 70 games I didn't know about any of that, had about a 10-20% win rate. Then something...

If you do get placed at Carotel/Unigardens/other your best option is to complain about the unsuitability of the accom there (if shared rooms or 7km travel distances are an issue for you) and to apply directly to the college(s) you would prefer to live in. Last year, due to an admin stuff-up, my...

I won the "Most likely to become our Evil Overlord" award at school.

You make me nostalgic for ext2.

Same in Switzerland. Walk through any graveyard and you'll see plenty of Adolph's born before the 40's and NONE AT ALL born later, and living people with that name are rare as hen's teeth.
